I'm Kaijie Xing, originally from China, currently studying Creative Business in The Netherlands.

Additionally, I've been involved in various projects such as short films and documentaries. Furthermore, I'm also adept at songwriting and designing, exploring my talents as an artist.
The reason why I decided to work for Peace Museum Vienna. I have always been interested in the thoughts of peace and history.
That’s why I wanna get involved into this topic and doing meaningful not for ourselves, for the world. So far, it has been worthwhile to work here. It will always been one of the monumental chapters in my life!
My name is Alex Bücker. I was born in Germany, but have lived in Basel, Switzerland for most of my life. After my Matura-Graduation I entered the University of Basel where I started to study History and Political Science. After a little while I realized that studying History is not exactly where I want my professional career to go so, I started studying law but kept on going with political science. I am currently doing my Bachelors in both of these subjects.
I intern for the Peace Museum Vienna because topics like conflict resolution, peacebuilding and the consciousness for peace are very important and highly interesting to me. In my opinion, it is essential that people are being educated about peace and how we keep it to form a better understanding on what it takes to achieve a more peaceful world. Every individual can make a difference and I think Peace Museum Vienna plays a critical role in educating people about that.

I'm Yas, I've been studying Art my whole life, my dad has always been an inspiration in my art life and I've learned a lot from him.
Peace has always been a part of my life and I never give up on Peace. The world has to be full of peace heroes and peaceful energy. I never doubt that justice is wrong, I always believe that peace will save the world if we all help each other either physical health or mental health, make someone smile, hug each other with or without a reason. Try to spread peace, to the world. When I started my internship in Peace museum, I knew I have reached my inner peace, and I know now it's time I spread peace to others.
My name is Martin Brlečić and I come from Zagreb, Croatia. I study sociology and I’m almost finished with my master’s degree. I was on exchange in the winter semester of 23. /24. In Graz and wanted to stay for a little longer in Austria and gain some more experience while I had the opportunity with Erasmus+ internship programme. While looking for an internship it was hard to find one that matched what I wanted to do in life and what I believed in. Luckily, I found the Peace Museum and I immediately felt that my search was over.
My reasoning for deciding that it was the right match for me is because during my sociological education all I heard about was hardship in the world and it impacted me in a personal way, so I decided to put my efforts in the opposite direction and do things that bring joy and peace to people.
